Ok, this is like the third time I've attempted this aircraft, but its one I really like. The Bugatti R-100 racer. Unfortunately the aircraft never flew due to WW2 happening, but it was way ahead of its time. This aircraft has probably inspired more of my concepts than any other through its clean and graceful lines.

Model Rhino 4.0
Textures Bryce 7.1

Yeah, I agree. Too bad it never flew; maybe someone could remake one and fly it? That'd be cool.

they're actually doing that at Oshkosh. I believe someone is working on a full scale reproduction

Seriously? That's wicked awesome. Now I want to see a WORKING reproduction. Not just some museum piece.

Gorgeous aircraft.

If you want to tweak the interior a bit - [link] to see the actual thing's cockpit. :) (And someone's actually built - nearly finished, it seems - a replica they plan to fly.)

kinda resembles a P-39 mated to a Shinden. :O_o: Nice, nonetheless.
